me ? lolIt's always good to know where you are starting 009.
Is your name really Doug?
Looking at it now it seems that you would not be able to build for just one driver, two is possible. How much power do you have?
i'd say plenty, i give them 250 watts rms each, i was hoping for a single driver so i dont have to have a massive box 🙁How much power do you have?
Well there is no free lunch. I think 2 in ~71l is OK considering you have a 50l box?

Comment=NEW RECORD - JBL GTO804
the current box for the two jbl's in 1.33 cubes, slot ported at 35hertz, but i had to stuff it and i still get port noise, and it isnt loud on the lows
what do you mean "no free lunch" lol ?
what do you mean "no free lunch" lol ?
ive just recieved this from a youtube subscriber, jbl gto804 t-line by 2009thread1 - Google 3D Warehouse
he designed it to the specs of the jbl, but still i'd prefer a tapped horn or should i try and stear onto something different for this subwoofer ?

I would NOT design for ED drivers, they are not the specs they claim; I have measured TSP's for both versions of the 18" and they are not even close. When I contacted ED the excuse they gave me was they don't have the ability to measure drivers...
+1 on that. I've measured the 13kv and the 13Ov - nowhere near measured specs. Looks like they gave you a different excuse than they gave me. See http://forum.edesignaudio.com/showthread.php/13kv-2-d4-questions-55280p2.html
Compact - Lower - High Power
I always liked the sound of a good 8"; compact is nice also. As far as goals: lower; I don't need to play it loud, although HT action scenes (explosions)can bottom-out, ruin a driver, so want to keep that in mind.
Yes, Doug here.

Hi Doug,
What direction do you want to go - lower, louder, fatter response???
I've made room in my inbox😛
when i play movies, i run 2.1 stereo
i have a denon pma710ae stereo amplifier with q acoustics 2020 speaker in gloss black and my 500 watt power amplifier, i never bottom the subs out even in movie scenes, but i mainly listen to dubstep, drum and bass with lots of lows and a sinle 8" in a room my size is ample, two just rumbles the floor and everything else around me

Hi 2009thread1,
Do you have any idea on a preferred size? When I simulate a TH (for a single JBL GTO804D) in Hornresp I get something around 95/110 L_net. For a tapped horn with a long folded horn path that may mean 125/130 L_gross. Your preferred external size will determine the folding.
Regards,

Regards,
if i can get it out of one sheet of mdf that would do, if it needs to be big for the sound i should be able to fit in somewhere
if you can sketch it up and email it to me on google sketchup i'd really appreciate it

Hi 2009thread1,
The sketchup TL looks like 72.38 L_gross, that is a lot smaller. But which one is better? 🙂

i live in the uk so buying from america will be expensive, how would the rockford fosgates hold out on 250 watts rms ?
ive never heard a t-line before, but from videos they're really loud on the lows, but ive never heard an 8" tapped horn beforeThe sketchup TL looks like 72.38 L_gross, that is a lot smaller. But which one is better? 🙂
🙄 Don't be looking at me - your the one with AutoCADHi 2009thread1,
I haven't found time (or reason, I use ACAD) to learn Google sketchup, maybe NEO Dan can help. I'll attach a first try Hornresp input and spl window:
Regards,

It's not like you need AutoCAD to get good looking output either:
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
